2-torsion points on theta divisors

Giuseppe Pareschi, Riccardo Salvati Manni

Published 2019-07-16Version 1

In this note we prove a sharp bound for the number of 2-torsion points on a theta divisor and show that this is achieved only in the case of products of elliptic curves. This settles in the affirmative a conjecture of Marcucci and Pirola.
